Two years later and still no arrests in Immokalee trailer fire

IMMOKALEE - It took less than a minute for the fire to rip through the small, brown trailer, killing five of the 10 people inside.

Yet after two years of investigation, no arrests have been made.

Today is the two-year anniversary of a fire that killed five people, including a pregnant mother and two of her three children, inside a trailer on lot 18 in Cleve's Trailer Park in Immokalee. The fire started outside the trailer investigators say, and was classified as arson.

It was the third time someone had set fire to the trailer, officials said at the time.

Despite a reward for information leading to the arrest and conviction of the people responsible, the tips are no longer trickling in, and the lead investigators have received have been exhausted.

Investigators say the arson remains a priority with the agency. Investigators are hoping that by keeping the spotlight on the case, someone who saw or heard something about the fire may point them in the right direction.

Even when he's working other cases, Henchesmoore said he asks people about the trailer fire.

"That one little thing that might not seem important might be the missing piece of the puzzle we need," Henchesmoore said.
